In this regard, topoisomerase IB – one of the enzymes controlling DNA topology – has been poisoned by hundreds of compounds that increase DNA fragility and cell death. Aromathecins...

A controlled drug release at the target site can improve the efficacy and toxicity of antileishmanial drugs in clinical use.
